LA SÉLECTION · No. 49
16 August 2026
Few sculptures have fascinated artists as profoundly as Michelangelo's David. This week's Private Viewing presents a remarkable testimony to that fascination: an imposing Study after Michelangelo's David, attributed to the Florentine sculptor Vincenzo de' Rossi, approached from behind and modelled in pen and brown ink with an exceptionally sculptural use of hatching. As the summer calendar stays quiet, this edition continues to look beyond the salerooms, towards gallery works, rediscoveries and drawings that invite a closer look.
